“The city’s highly publicized campaign of targeting illegal immigrants threatens to drive away business and industry and damage prospects for economic revitalization, a new report asserts.
The report, by polling firm Zogby International, challenges the mayor’s claim that illegal immigrants are responsible for overburdened police, schools and hospitals. It concludes that Hazleton should embrace immigration as a “solution to an aging and declining population.”
Zogby was hired by a civic group, the Greater Hazleton Area Civic Partnership, to identify economic and demographic trends and how they will affect future development in the city about 85 miles northwest of Philadelphia.”
